5 Essentials For An Amazing At-Home Super Bowl Party

Image
Super Bowl weekend is almost upon us and we’re willing to bet that, for some of you, this has little meaning aside from making plans to hang out with friends and indulge in snacks (Read: nachos!) while others get overly excited about something that hardly matters (Read: football).That said, this year’s parties will definitely be smaller and safer than ever before thanks to social distancing practices. Just because you’re only watching with roommates or family doesn’t mean you can’t go all out, though! These awesome Super Bowl party ideas are proof that you don’t need to do much to have a great time. Heck, you don’t even really have to watch the game! So, what are some non-negotiable Super Bowl party essentials? First, the food. From snacks like dips and wings to meals like sliders and slow-cooker chili, the right food can set the mood—even if you’re only cooking for a handful of people. Of course, along with food comes drinks, so make sure your fridge is well-stocked and your Solo C...

5 Sex Positions To Wow Even The Most Rebellious Aquarius

Image
Let’s get real about the best sex positions for Aquarius . The eleventh sign of the zodiac, air sign Aquarius—born between January 20 and February 18—is known to be forward-thinking, humanitarian, headstrong, eccentric, social, and tech-savvy. The Water Bearer brings their quirky personality into the bedroom, where they’re fans of striking out against anything conventional. Defining their sexual identity and needs in a unique, personal way is of utmost importance to the free-spirited air sign. Ruled by both game-changer Uranus and taskmaster Saturn, an Aquarian may be up for learning experiences in bed, light bondage, power play, quickies, and checking out the coolest new sex toy technology . Their M.O. in and out of the sheets is to forge platonic bonds above all other types of connections, so feeling a friendly vibe and having an intellectual connection with their lover is a must. And as a fixed sign, it’s possible they’ll lean hard into tried-and-true routines and require a bit...

9 Important Questions Your Dermatologist Seriously Wishes You’d Ask

Image
Do I really need to wear sunscreen every day (the answer is yes, BTW)? Does this mole look okay? What’s the moisturizer for my skin type? Regardless of what questions you have for your dermatologist at your next appointment , chances are your derm has heard them all. What they don’t hear as frequently are the questions they wish you’d ask them. Whether you’re in their office for an annual skin checkup or a laser treatment , it turns out that dermatologists actually ~do~ want you to take advantage of their time. To help you get the most out of your appointments, we asked derms to share the questions their patients aren’t asking and wish they would. Scroll through what to keep in mind before your next visit. Could my diet be affecting my skin? “This is a good question because a lot of times we talk about topical treatments when inflammation or breakouts [can] arise from what we are putting in our bodies. Processed or artificial sugars, dehydration and nutrient deficiencies can play...

The Best High-Coverage Under-Eye Concealers To Help You Fake a Full Night’s Rest

Image
Don’t you just love it when someone asks, “Are you tired?” Said literally no one ever. Okay, let’s be real — none of us want to hear that our night owl tendencies (or frankly, just our genetics) are visible to others. In fact, if we have had a full night’s sleep, sometimes our under-eye circles tell a different story. Unless you’re going for a super smoked out blue and purple eye look, erasing those shadows is probably going to be the goal, and finding the right under-eye concealer for dark circles that gives you opaque coverage but doesn’t cake, crease, or settle into fine lines is a major game-changer. As you already know, concealers work their magic by brightening the under-eye area and reducing the appearance of dark circles , but unfortunately, you probably also know that not all concealers are created equal. With so many different formulas, textures, and finishes on the market, it’s difficult to find a solid concealer that provides sufficient coverage, but actually stays p...

This Oral Sex Simulator Makes Social Distancing So Much Easier

Image
When it comes to sex toys, there are clunky ones that are purely functional (think: wands) and ones that are especially chic but not necessarily super powerful. It rare that one toy is able to achieve both but Dame’s Aer suction toy does just that. The lavender vibrator is, for lack of a better word, really pretty. While charging it for the first time on my dresser, I couldn’t help but think it fit right in with the retro-chic home decor trend that’s so popular right now. But it’s not home decor . It’s for pleasure and it’s designed to satisfy vagina-havers either alone or with a partner. It’s Dame’s first suction toy , but it’s not the first on the market. That’s why I asked Dame Products’s co-founder and CEO Alexandra Fine what makes her toy so different. “Most suction products utilize the same concept of changing air pressure in a cavity by manipulating the volume of the enclosed space,” she says. “While each product attempts this through a slightly different design, there are a ...

The Actress Originally Cast as Daenerys on ‘GOT’ Finally Responded to Being Replaced by Emilia Clarke

Image
Years before Emilia Clarke became our Khaleesi, there was Tamzin Merchant’s Daenerys in  Game of Thrones ’ pilot episode. That’s right: There was once a different actress playing the Mother of Dragons. So, why was she recast? Watch 'Game of Thrones' on HBO Max $14.99 buy it Merchant, who now stars in Amazon Prime’s  Carnival Row,  was just 21 when she shot the first pilot episode of HBO’s  Game of Thrones in 2009 after being cast as Daenerys Targaryen . But that pilot—along with Merchant’s casting in it—was scrapped. Over a decade later,  The Tudors  alum, 33, spoke to  Entertainment Weekly   about being cut from the show and being replaced by actress Emilia Clarke , an experience she now calls “a really great lesson.” As it turns out, Merchant always wanted to “back out” from the project—so being cut from the show was something of a blessing. “It was an affirmation about listening to my instincts and following them, because...

Image
Megan Fox appears to have been photographed wearing a ring on *that* finger, so it begs the question: Are Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly engaged ? Fans certainly think so. Speculation over Megan Fox and MGK’s engagement was sparked on Thursday, January 28, when  Jennifer’s Body  actress, 34, was spotted wearing a huge diamond ring on her left hand while out and about in New York City.
